Chuck Russell has been tipped to direct a $70 million 3-D adaptation of the classic Arabian Nights Tales says Variety.The new action adventure heavy version follows a young commander who, after his king is killed in a palace coup, joins forces with Sinbad, Aladdin and his genie to rescue Scheherazade and her kingdom from dark powers.
Russell and Barry P. Ambrose co-wrote the script.
Filming begins in April.
These whiz-bang of these stories in the film remake are obviously hoping to ride the upcoming wave generated by the Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time.
Another 3-D pic...Sheesh.
